How to add commented description on new scripts

Does anyone recall how to have each new script open with an account name and date at the top as a comment? I used to have this set up until I updated and can no longer figure out how I did it.

It would certainly be easy enough to write a set of tools to do that for you. In fact, that may be what you were using.

It would also explain why you lost it when you upgraded MATLAB.

A good lesson there is to NOT store your own files and any downloaded files in the MATLAB supplied directories, since then you will lose them when you upgrade MATLAB.

I personally have a post-install script that I run to add my utilities folder to the path and set the colors to a theme I prefer with Matlab Schemer.

Should anyone want to borow parts of it: I have attached the file as it is slightly too long to be reasonable for a comment.
